DIY No-Contract Security Projected to Expand Pro Monitoring Services

Do-it-yourself security systems and no-contract, hybrid monitoring solutions enabled by DIY security will expand professional monitoring services, conservatively, to an additional 5% of U.S. households, according to Parks Associates.

Self-installed security solutions will significantly lower the cost of security, create new monitoring use cases, and, in doing so, expand the market beyond the traditional 20-25% of U.S. households that have professionally-monitored security, the research firm reports in a whitepaper titled “Market Snapshot: DIY and Home Security.”
